200 trouble free shots with a Luger? I don't think even the Wehrmacht ever achieved that!
Have done some 7,000 shots so far with a refurbed 1937 S/42, without issues.

My personal favorite story is that of Prof. Dr. Gminder's P08, which was salvaged from the Neckar river in 1975, after 30 years under water. It was overhauled and fitted with a barrel liner as a test to see how long it would hold out. The gun has been going since 1975 without problems. I got a chance to shoot it in 2009. Grouped nicely, even with my eye sight.
